God is Being Pampered by the Group - Chapter 29
Chapter 29: “Good Morning”
After receiving Bai Yan’s approval, Yang Xinran immediately sprang into action. She selected her materials and edited her words with extreme caution.
It wasn’t until evening that the content was ready for announcement. She then chose an appropriate moment 9:00 PM, a time when most people had finished their chores and were lying in bed scrolling through their phones to punctually post the prepared update.
Then, she waited quietly.
Yang Xinran felt that diverting traffic wouldn’t be much of a problem. On an account with nearly ten million followers, ninety percent were attracted by Bai Yan’s appearance, and thanks to her meticulous maintenance, active fans accounted for at least seventy to eighty percent.
Once she posted the update, as expected, the comment section exploded within minutes.
At that moment, many netizens were scrolling through their phones as usual when they suddenly heard a “ding-dong” accompanied by a vibration. A special notification appeared at the top of their screens representing an update from a creator they followed closely!
Without a second thought, they clicked in. The screen instantly switched to the creator’s update page, and in a flash, a photograph charged into everyone’s sight.
Undoubtedly, the netizens following this creator knew that the account was originally named “Ranran Loves Watching Niche CPs.” As the name suggested, it was simple and easy to understand. However, one day, this creator posted a unique video to celebrate reaching one million followers, and from then on, everything changed.
Not only did the creator fall for the subject, but countless netizens who watched the video fell in as well, unable to believe that such beauty could truly exist in this world.
From then on, more and more netizens followed the account, clearly all coming for the peerless silver-haired beauty in the video. When the creator changed her name to “Silver-Haired Beauty’s Number One Loyal Fan” and posted another update, it contained a picture or rather, a photograph was more accurate.
Yes, it was a photo of the silver-haired beauty from the previous video, but this time, he completely revealed his face more flawless than anyone could have imagined without a hat or mask. In that instant, netizens went wild; their lives were complete.
Thereafter, even more netizens followed. Every two days, they could see new photos. Without a doubt, the person in the photos was always that silver-haired beauty, and by now, no one dared to question whether he was a real person.
Now, waiting for the creator’s scheduled updates has become the expectation of many netizens. Tonight, receiving an update notification a full day earlier than scheduled made the waiting fans undeniably happy.
When the expectant or puzzled netizens clicked onto the page of the latest update, they were all momentarily stunned.
In the past, the photos posted by the creator felt like candid life shots. Although they couldn’t hide the beauty of the silver-haired beauty, this one was entirely different.
First of all, it was a full-body photograph.
Set outdoors under a blooming peach blossom tree, the silver-haired beauty stood tall and slender. A simple white shirt and trousers outlined a perfect physique. He stood there quietly, holding a black cat in his arms. As a breeze passed, petals drifted down, intertwining with his dancing long silver hair, exuding a sense of a peaceful and beautiful moment in time.
When netizens met those indifferent, boundless pale gold eyes that seemed to look right into the lens, they felt as if their hearts had been pierced in an instant, thumping with excitement.
It took quite a while before they gradually came back to their senses and finally noticed the text the creator had edited.
There wasn’t much repetition, just a simple and clear mention: “The immortal-tier little brother in the photo has opened a livestream room on the Noel Culture platform to play games. Everyone, go support him~”
Below that was the account ID and the link to the livestream room.
Undeniably, seeing these words from the creator made the netizens’ hearts skip another beat.
What is a livestream? A livestream means you can interact with the host, hear the host’s voice, and see the host alive and breathing applying that to the silver-haired beauty in the photo, no one could remain unmoved.
At this moment, the comment section had clearly hit a fever pitch.
To summarize it in one sentence: “When is the immortal-tier little brother going live?! I’m flying there right now, awoo awoo awoo!!!”
Yang Xinran lay in bed, the corners of her mouth gradually curling up.
She chose not to reply to any individual messages. Instead, she typed in the comment section:
“Everyone, have sweet dreams tonight. Tomorrow morning at 8:00 AM is the scheduled start time for the Noel Culture livestream platform. Let’s all go support the little brother then and give him a surprise~”
Once this comment was out, it garnered tens of thousands of likes within minutes, automatically becoming a “divine comment” by the system. The replies below were all from excited netizens frantically posting “+1.”
Yang Xinran moved her finger and immediately pinned this comment to the top.
That night, countless people were destined to be unable to sleep.
…
The next morning.
Bai Yan slowly opened his eyes in bed; there wasn’t a trace of sleepiness in his gaze.
He turned his head slightly and saw the gauze curtains by the window swaying gently in the wind. Soft sunlight projected in, covering half of the foot of the bed. Outside, the blue sky was as clear as if it had been washed.
Bai Yan sat up, his long silver-white hair falling from his shoulders, smooth as silk.
A moment later, the bedroom door opened from the inside, and Bai Yan appeared at the doorway.
The time was 7:30 AM.
Knowing that no matter how lightly he stepped, he would “wake” Bai Yan, Guan Zhou basically didn’t enter the bedroom in the morning anymore. He just wanted Bai Yan to sleep a bit longer; it didn’t matter even if he stayed in bed.
However, every morning at 7:30 sharp, Bai Yan would still “wake up” and walk out of the bedroom, just as Guan Zhou was getting ready to leave for “work.”
Actually, Guan Zhou had been staying home the last few days to help handle Bai Yan’s livestreaming, temporarily turning down all his work as an extra. This made the crew leader, Little Wang, breathe a sigh of relief.
A while back, when Guan Zhou approached him saying “the more the better,” Little Wang thought Guan Zhou might have been triggered by something. Taking a few days’ rest was good.
He was young; it wasn’t worth working himself to exhaustion.
Of course, Little Wang didn’t know, nor could he experience, the happiness of keeping a well-behaved and lovely silver-haired beauty at home. Guan Zhou felt he was enjoying every bit of it.
“You’re up.”
Wearing an apron and holding a pot of seafood porridge that smelled heavenly, Guan Zhou happened to be coming out of the kitchen. He saw Bai Yan walking out of the bedroom and couldn’t help but smile.
The black cat poked its head out from the sofa: “Good morning, meow~”
Breakfast consisted of seafood porridge, fried eggs, small steamed buns, and milk—simple, nutritious, and rich.
Since Guan Zhou discovered the black cat’s ability, the interaction between the human and the demon had become much more harmonious. They no longer engaged in chaotic “cat and mouse” antics behind Bai Yan’s back.
At the dining table, the black cat also secured a seat. However, after Guan Zhou refused its attempt to jump onto the table, it stood on the chair like a human, propping up its front body… for a cat to perform such a difficult maneuver, it was quite a struggle.
Oh, it’s a cat demon, so there’s no problem.
Of course, in front of the ordinary human Luo Miaoxi, the black cat still pretended to be a normal cat and didn’t cause trouble for Guan Zhou. It’s just that Luo Miaoxi hadn’t given up on the idea of finding a girlfriend for the black cat, bringing it up from time to time, which annoyed the cat to no end.
Seeing the black cat suffer, Guan Zhou was more than happy to see it happen, even joining in sometimes: “I’ve seen that Ragdoll cat; it’s very beautiful. I think you could consider it.”
Black Cat: “…” Scram (ノ`Д)ノ
Inside the small house, there was plenty of joy.
Around 8:00 AM.
Guan Zhou looked at Bai Yan sitting on the sofa. After receiving a slight nod in response, he turned on the TV.
The TV was wirelessly connected to the game console’s control station. Under Bai Yan’s control with the two spheres, they then opened the Noel Culture livestream platform. Suddenly, countless windows popped up on the screen, enough to make one’s head spin.
The morning had just begun, and although the platform regulations stated that broadcasting starts at 8:00 AM, it already looked very lively, showing the intensity of the competition.
In the newcomer zone, various livestream rooms were popping up. Some had “9 hours” of airtime good heavens, they must have stayed up all night.
Of course, Guan Zhou wouldn’t allow Bai Yan to do that; staying up late is bad for his health.
Guan Zhou saw it was still early and didn’t want Bai Yan to treat livestreaming as a boring job, so he said: “Do you want to watch some programs?”
Variety, comedy, anything was fine.
However, Bai Yan shook his head. Under his control, the screen shifted to show the livestream room of the creator named “Silver Sun and Moon,” which began its live broadcast.
…
Although Yang Xinran mentioned 8:00 AM the previous night, many netizens had actually woken up at the crack of dawn and opened the Noel Culture platform.
Thus, some netizens who frequently browsed this platform suddenly saw a massive surge of traffic. The data display in the upper right corner of the screen flickered.
Though strange, they didn’t pay it much mind. As time passed, more and more viewers entered the platform, starting a bustling day.
As 8:00 AM approached, netizens coming from Yang Xinran’s account flooded into a room named “Silver Sun and Moon.” At this moment, the host hadn’t started yet, so the room was pitch black.
But this didn’t affect the netizens’ good mood. Inside the pitch-black room, bullet comments rolled continuously some chatting, some asking when the immortal-tier little brother would start, some waiting anxiously, and so on.
It looked quite eerie, so much so that when some viewers who had previously followed this newcomer’s room accidentally clicked in and saw this scene, they were all given a big fright.
Gradually, after they learned the intention of this large crowd of netizens, they couldn’t help but become curious.
“Is the immortal-tier little brother you’re talking about the host?” This was an original viewer.
“Isn’t that obvious? Of course!” This was someone from Xigua.
“I’ve been watching the stream for a few days, and I haven’t seen the host speak or show his face. How do you know the host is male?”
“Here, the link…”
On one hand, regardless of what the original viewers thought after following the link to Xigua and seeing the host’s photos.
On the other hand, the original viewers saw the bullet comments frequently asking when the host would start. It was already past 8:00 AM, yet the room was still dark. Netizens from Xigua couldn’t help but get a little anxious.
An original viewer finally answered the question:
“LMAO, you guys came here without knowing the situation?”
“I’ll tell you the truth: the host is quite headstrong. He broadcasts whenever he feels like it.”
“I remember yesterday he didn’t start until 10:00?”
“Poor things, you’ll probably have a long wait. Maybe go check out some other streams first? I recommend room XXX…”
“…”
At that moment, the pitch-black room suddenly flickered and slowly lit up. The game interface of the old game where the host had “DIE-d” countless times which was incredibly familiar to the original viewers appeared.
The bullet comments suddenly went silent. Then, before the original viewers or the netizens from Xigua could react, they suddenly heard a voice
Clear as a spring, tuneful, and exceptionally beautiful.
He said: “Good morning.”
